Good toe box, nice style, but it slipped off the back of my heel as I walked. My daughter tried them and felt the same thing. Had to return.

This shoe runs a little on the narrow side. The left shoe fit good, but the right shoe was to narrow.

There is some kind of seam inside the front of the shoe that irritated the side of my foot

I returned the shoes because of the very round toe shape. Otherwise they were fine.

I got a 9.5 wide but it felt and looked like a double wide. I would have needed to order 9.5 regular.

The tongue was too long, making it uncomfortable to lace up the last 2 eyelets. I subsequently returned this pair and purchased another pair of the 840v which do not have this issue and are very comfortable.

I mostly wear my 940s for fast walking. I have been wearing 1080s for the past eight years. Last year's model 1080v10 seemed too narrow compared to the more rounded wider toe box of my previous 1080s- so I thought I would try something different. I wanted the 880s but spoke to a New Balance employee and she said they also had the narrower toe box. For reference I wear a women's 9.5 2E. I bought the 940 in my same size, which seems to be right. It doesn't have the same arch support and the heel is stiffer. I am trying to get use to them but so far I can't wait to take them off. I lived in my 1080s. The 940 does not compare.

Loved these but there is plastic in the toe. It had a small dent at the edge of this plastic. Eveytime I walked, my toenail would catch on the dent. Sent them back.

I usually need a shoe with a bigger toe box, so I ordered the wide with. Not sure why but these shoes really hurt my big toes and there was plenty of room. Originally I ordered the regular width and sent those back cuz they felt tight up front. Now the wide size is going back too. These were not for me

Wider heel giving it a looser feel.

given the price, I thought it would provide more support. No arch support. Not comfortable for me, had to return.

As much as i tightened them up with the laces, they still felt “sloshy” and not supportive

I wanted to like these but unfortunately I had to return them. I have issues with my feet so I wanted to try something with more support. I have two pairs of the New Balance 880's which I like. These were a bit too wide in the heel and the soles were too stiff to be comfortable for me.

These are really clunky and not cute, but more importantly, they are super supportive and comfortable. They didn't work for me because my orthotics pushed my heel up too high in them, and they are so stiff (which I usually really like--that makes them more supportive) that the heel slipped as I took each step. If they do fit you right, you'll have happy feet...even if your kids laugh at your clodhopper shoes. ;) (I ended up with the New Balance 860 instead. Similar fit, 95% as supportive, but much thinner and stretchy around your heel so it stays put.)

I am returning because these were so big and my foot slid around in them. I never thought to check but I did today and they have a W on the tongue. I think they must be a wide shoe and I ordered medium width. I am returning due to that.

I normally wear an 8-1/2 Wide in New Balance, but it is too big. I ordered an 8W and it is still too big so I ordered an 8M and will post results when I receive it.

Good shoe but I had to return it. The tongue is very short. Lacing the shoe tight for a narrow foot placed the edge of the tongue at an angle on the top instep of my foot that caused rubbing and created a blister. Do not recommend for narrow width pronators. The tongue is not long enough to cushion top insole of your foot.

It seems that the 940v4 is now too short and too wide in my Size. Looks like I will have to visit my nearest NB Store.

Nice shoe, but too big. These are too big even with my special inserts. I am consistently 7.5, reg width on running shoes. These are probably a full size too big.

Everyday shoe
Shoe runs very large - bought a 8.5 wide and it is way to big. This is the first time I have returned a shoe I bought from New Balance

I bought a running shoe that is narrow. I need narrow. However, the shoe wasn't very comfortable. I am starting to lose interest in New Balance. I was always able to find narrow sneakers however they are making less and less. Whenever I find a sneaker I like they discontinue it. When I am paying over $100 for my sneaker I want them to feel good.
